Oh gosh no, don't do it! Those things are extremely scary. They gave us some at the Spurs-Magic game I went to in Orlando last year. I was convinced that thing was going to come to life and kill me in my sleep at the hotel. On second thought, do it
Photo Shop Jason Terry's face here
Then make copies and pass them out to fans under each basket and if he ever shoots a free throw the fans can razz his ass

What we need to do is get everyone behind the basket to wave their thunderstix back and forth in unison. It makes it seem like the basket is moving around and its very hard to shoot free throws. When everyone just waves their sticks around it doesn't work, the brain is good at filtering out random motion.
So if you know anyone who is sitting down there, convince them to get other ppl to try this, I PROMISE Dallas' FT percentage will drop.
Thats actually a really great idea lol
Yea I'm serious, if you know ANYONE sitting in this sections spread the word, it'll make a difference in the game.
Actually, this is one of Cuban's ideas. It worked one game but then the next 5 or so games they tried it, the opponent FT% went up. I suspect this was the idea of a Mavs troll. Regardless, I'm sure that Cuban's had the Mavs practice FTs with this kind of distraction as he published his results. Don't do it.
It was some scientist who was doing a study on the brain that came up with the idea, he emailed Mark Cuban about trying it out. The first 2 games their opponents shot less than 40% from the ft line, but the next few games it was back to normal.
Photoshop btw, not photo shop(I work with these kinds of programs, pet peeve of mine when people space it wrong), but least you didn't say photo chop.
I highly doubt the FT percentage would go up. But at least for ONE GAME it would probably go down and would be more effective than random waving/yelling, which does nothing
Why not just give these to the folks under the basket?
